That's it?
Is "Australia's most popular sport" based on that alone from your 2 states?
They really are bizarre theories. Neither valid at all.AFLcrap1 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 8:58 amLet me explain for youCats_Steve wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 7:48 amThe 'minute by minute' argument is one of the absolute worst and reeks of desperation.
Some afl posters on here try to say that Aflol ratings should be multiplied by 1.5 because games go for 120 mins compared to RL games at 80 mins .
That's desperation there .
Can't accept that RL is the most watched sport so they apply some bizarre theory .
Yet when you say ok we shall apply that to the tv deal which makes RL far more valuable
We get far more per hr for broadcast than afl does it suddenly doesn't apply .
You can't have it both ways ...& that's excatly what lol tries to do .
So
I'm ok saying .
RL wins the ratings. Is the most watched
& AFL got the higher media deal .
Yet the cultists can't bring themselves to admit that Aflol gets beaten in ratings .
Rugby Leagues generates more TV ratings. ie. more viewers . Meaning it is Australia most watched sport .
Is this as good as the arguments get in here?pussycat wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 11:26 amRugby Leagues generates more TV ratings. ie. more viewers . Meaning it is Australia most watched sport .
The amount of states has nothing to do with it.
These looked like pretty comfy AFL wins (not knowing how foxtel changes things) . After looking at these this morning... I wondered what they normally look like? And that's a genuine question as I know the NRL generally outrates.Beaussie wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 12:01 pmMore big wins for the AFL on Friday night and Saturday night over the NRL. Yet somehow leaguies believe their code rates better. Go figure.

Argument what argument ????????????????? An 'argument' would suggest there some doubt or debate over this! there's not. Rugby league is watched by more Australians than any other sport. And this is a fact. Only a very stupid person argues with facts.Cats_Steve wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 11:57 amIs this as good as the arguments get in here?pussycat wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 11:26 amRugby Leagues generates more TV ratings. ie. more viewers .

Wow there's going to be no point with you, I'm glad I've learnt that earlypussycat wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 1:44 pmArgument what argument ?????????????????

What you may not realise Steve, even though the AFL regularly smashes the NRL for ratings.Cats_Steve wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 2:00 pmWow there's going to be no point with you, I'm glad I've learnt that early
Haha thanks mate. At least that makes sense, sorta, with the accumulated totals.SportCapital wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 3:42 pmWhat you may not realise Steve, even though the AFL regularly smashes the NRL for ratings.Cats_Steve wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 2:00 pmWow there's going to be no point with you, I'm glad I've learnt that early
At the end of the season when they add NRL, state of origin and international games viewers all together RL eclipses the stand alone AFL total.
That's why they always refer to it as RL (Rugby league) as a code being the most watched.
But of course if you look at stand alone competitions, the AFL is the most watched competition, hence the regular smashing of the NRL.
I hope this was helpful and allow you to now have more informed retorts regarding ratings to our northern counterparts.
here's my take on the ratings battle:Cats_Steve wrote: ↑Sun Aug 05, 2018 4:07 pmHaha thanks mate.

So do we subtract the Melbourne ratings from origin, gf and Internationals from your year end total? Coz those figures are coming from people with a different favourite sport.
would love to see an updated article given our ratings have definitely improved while yours have dropped significantly. You know this of course given you had 7 matches over 1mil in the first 10 rounds and havent had one since.
